Bret Blades came over and we sorted out what was going on with the
ignition by putting a pertronix in. While we were at it, we swapped
polarity, readjusted the valve train, retuned the carbs, replaced the
braided fuel line with one I had to get made, and got the overdrive
electrics sorted out (need a road test to see if they work.

After the videos, we got it running a little rich but very smooth and
I ran out of gas. I will lean it out later after I get everything
else sorted out.
